    yes its perfectly fine to eat and its also where most of the flavor come from.

    try this next time you get some brie. slice a baguette on a bias so you get long slices. put a slice of brie on the bread and top with raspberry preserves and toast under a broiler until the cheese is hot.

    Yes. On camembert and brie it’s called a “rind”. It’s completely edible, and in my opinion, the best part of the cheese.

    yeh it’s good.

    try it with a red wine.. it’ll change the aftertaste.

    It is a matter of taste, it is only the skin of the cheese, I think its really tasty…

    It won’t kill you. It’s like the crust on breads.

    I like the rind.

    I know some people who don’t, so its up to you.
